WCW The Great American Bash 1990 - NWA World Heavyweight Championship: Ric Flair (c) vs Sting {with The Dudes with Attitudes [Junkyard Dog, Paul Orndorff, & The Steiner Brothers (Rick & Scott Steiner)]}
So Ole Anderson has to be handcuffed to El Gigante during this, and the Dudes with Attitudes are here to make sure the Horsemen don't get involved. We start with Sting winning the first few exchanges with his strength. Sting no-sells Flair's chops and hits a big military press slam. Flair tries to roll out of the ring like he normally would, but the Dudes stop him. Flair rolls out onto the ramp now, and Sting follows him down it and hits a hip toss on the ramp, and clotheslines him back inside the ring. This crowd is crazy hot. Flair finally gets something going after a thumb to the eye. Flair hits a big suplex, but Sting gets up quickly, and hits a few clotheslines, followed by a diving crossbody for a two count. Flair regroups outside before coming back in, and he goes right for Sting's formerly injured knee. Sting comes back, but misses an elbow, and Flair goes for the Figure-4 early, but Sting blocks it. Both men are back up now, and Flair catches him with some cheap strikes that Sting sells this time. Flair tosses him outside on to the hard ramp, and follows him out. Back in the ring, Flair continues to go for the knee, and also hits some chops in between knee strikes. Sting's limping now, but he fights back with some big strikes, but misses a dropkick, and Flair continues to work on the knee. Sting moves out of the way of a knee drop, and Sting locks in his own Figure-4 on Flair. Flair gets out, and ends up pulling Sting outside of the ring, and slams him into the rail but Sting no-sells it They get back in the ring, and Flair begs for Sting to wait, but Sting just gets on top of him and punches Naitch right in the face. Flair tries to go up top, but of course that doesn't work. Sting gets a close two count with a backslide, but Flair catches him with a sweet leg sweep to the knee Flair is in complete control now, and goes for the Figure-4 again, but Sting kicks out of it once more. Flair stays in control though, but Sting starts no-selling Flair's chops again, and he hits a big military press slam on Flair without selling the knee at all. Sting sends Flair to the turnbuckle and Flair goes up and over, but Sting clotheslines him as he's running down the apron Sting hits the Stinger Splash in the corner, then locks in the Scorpion Deathlock, and the crowd is going crazy. The Horsemen come running out now, and start brawling with the Dudes. The Dudes push them back, and this Scorpion looks like one of his TNA Scorpions by the time Flair gets to the ropes. Flair ties to use the ropes for a cheap pin, but Scott Steiner pushes them off, and we get some chain wrestling now between these two with some close two counts. The crowd bites at everyone of these two counts, it's great. Sting ends up hitting his bad knee on the turnbuckle, and Flair goes for the Figure-4, but Sting reverses it into a roll-up and pins him for the win The ending was fucking awesome and I love how they didn't have Flair ever actually lock in the Figure-4 because of Sting's knee being hurt since it wouldn't be believable at all for Sting not to submit. These two have had better matches, but this was good and Sting finally winning the belt was worth the wait. Can't wait for The Black Scorpion feud to start now
